Since liberals have stated many times that their goal is a 90% reduction in the World's population, the following takes on a lot more weight!

>The plandemic engineers and mass murderers will be exposed and stopped. Much like the Third Reich, their conspiracy to exterminate the human race will ultimately fail, and now we’re starting to see a tipping point emerging, leading to a global backlash against Fauci, Daszak, Gates, Soros and all the others who took part in this global human extermination agenda.

He is correct in that we will ALL be pulled into this mess soon! The liberals are driven to force their wills onto others; with an internal drive to control every aspect of everyone else's life! They are incapable of self control, and Hate any freedom for others!

>Put another way: We are going to win, but we’re going to go through hell before we get there. And there’s no doubt in my mind that tens of millions of Americans will be slaughtered by the covid vaccine mass murderers, with hundreds of millions dead worldwide before this is all done.

I fear this is accurate, and it also appears to be their plan for us all. Any opposing political views are targets for their violence, they are currently imprisoning Conservatives for the "Crime" of having the "wrong" political view! They imprisoned a Man today, for 8 months; for just being in the Capitol building on the 6th, walking peacefully!

In this article, they provide a comprehensive list that is valuable for prepping; please read and comment. This list is only a starting point, and every prep will look different, based on individual needs and abilities!

My list is much more involved on their number 13, including reloading supplies, air rifles, black powder, and flintlocks.

I also am stockpiling steel and other metals, plus cutting tools for my machine shop. This includes blacksmithing and metal casting tools.

Since I know how to design using vacuum tubes, I have pulled in a stockpile of them to use in the event of widespread EMP damage. My ham radio equipment includes a full set of vacuum tube based communication equipment.

17 and 18 skirt the need for a comprehensive First Aid kit, and I recommend books up to the most aggressive medical procedures you are comfortable preforming. Use your best Judgement here, this is a Critical piece; needed for long term survival!

The single largest gap I see here, is food preservation supplies and tools. You need them now, so you can practice with them and get Good at the entire process! Can some now, and you can even add to your food storage while practicing!

50 is the single most difficult, and the MOST Important to pursue! You should also make sure you have as much in knowledge in print, as you can get! Electronic storage will be unreliable at best, so don't count on it for survival!

Storing critical backup electronics in a Faraday cage is wise too. An easy way to do this is to use an old microwave oven, with the cord cut off; as a storage container. It was designed to keep heavy microwave energy inside the oven, and it will work equally well keeping EMP energy out!

Play to Your strengths, find people to cover your weaknesses, and keep a low profile for you and yours! We will all go through this together....
